Disease relevance of ORF5

When compared to potex-, carla-, clostero- and capilloviruses, the ASPV genome organization appeared to be most closely related to that of potexviruses, but with a larger coat protein of M(r) 44K (ORF5) [1].

High impact information on ORF5

Four of the five proteins encoded by the Grapevine virus A (GVA) genome were screened using a green fluorescent protein (GFP)-based transient expression assay, and the expression product of ORF5 (protein p10) was identified as a suppressor of silencing [2].
Protein coded by ORF4 is the least conserved between both isolates (95% amino acid identity), whereas proteins coded by ORF3 and ORF5 are identical [3].
